For some, Electric Daisy Carnival marks the end of a long journey. For others, EDC is just the beginning. A first-time set at Insomniac’s flagship massive for those who have built a large following stand to open their sound up to a whole new audience, and you the “headliner" have the chance to be among the first to see it happen. Here are our 19 picks for can’t-miss EDC debuts, organized (very liberally) by sound.

Bass

GTA

Van Toth and JWLS of Miami’s body-moving trap and booty outfit GTA make the kind of music you need in a place that parties like Las Vegas. With extra-large rage anthems like their latest with Juyen Sebulba, expect them to come armed to the teeth for their EDC debut.

San Diego native Ookay has gone from SoundCloud scrapper to Dim Mak regular on the back of his tasty twerk and trap flavorings with multiple major releases under his belt form PRMD to Ultra. He still brings the heat for free on SoundCloud, like this World Cup tribute with ETC!ETC!.

Dutch trio Yellow Claw will make their much-deserved debut at EDC Las Vegas this year, and when considering the output they’ve reached over the last year, we can’t think of many others who deserve a first-ever slot at EDC. Get familiar with their original trap stylings here.

Just a year after landing in San Francisco for their first human interaction, bass supergroup Destroid is booked to blast the petals off Electric Daisy Carnival this year. Don’t miss a power-laden performance that is both visually stunning and audibly punishing.

Djemba Djemba’s stock has been rising fast since his debut on Mad Decent/Jeffree’s and through recent remixes of acts like Crystals. His debut at EDC Las Vegas makes for an exciting milestone in the career of a talented young producer who, not long ago, was likely dreaming of this day from the other side of the decks.

DJ Snake, the Parisian producer behind Turn Down For What and the Dillon Francis collab Get Low, brings his talents to EDC for the first time this year. Considering the hot streak that Snake has been on, this one is a definite in our schedules.

Flume’s fame now extends well beyond his home of Australia or even electronic music as a whole, and when paired up with Emoh Instead, their project What So Not shines through experimentation and forward-thinking beats. This EDC debut has the makings of a set that will be talked about for some time to come.

Ex-Swedish House Mafiosos Axwell and Sebastian Ingrosso have launched their new duo, and after a much talked-about debut at Governor’s Ball June 8, the West Coast should be more than ready to welcome the superduo to Las Vegas with hands in the air.

Deorro’s talents have landed him releases on Revealed, Dim Mak, and Ultra, a collab with Diplo and Steve Aoki, and most recently a slot on the 22 Jump Street soundtrack alongside some of electronic music’s finest. Coming into his first EDC on such a hot streak, Deorro has a lot to celebrate and come the weekend, he’ll have the perfect setting to do so.

UK duo Dusky has rocketed up from the underground over the past few years with their classic approach to house and techno, and with a new EP in their arsenal, it’s the perfect time to coax them across the pond for their EDC Vegas debut.

Los Angeles’ Le Youth is working on a banner year starting with his hugely popular Dance With Me and continuing with an infectious collaboration with Javeon he just revealed on June 12. His tropical vibes and catchy grooves make for a must-see set to squeeze into your schedule.

Miami club-killers Sluggers are ready to bring their party vibes to EDC Vegas for the first time, and armed with recent heaters like HYPR and Courtesy on Fool’s Gold, you’d better focus on being ready yourself.

Arguably one of the biggest breakout acts of the past 12 months, Tchami’s success and resulting EDC debut help ensure that EDC will offer plenty of “future" and G-house and that the surge in the genre will keep its momentum for years to come. Prepare yourself with his latest on Spinnin’ Records here.

Zki and Dobre of Chocolate Puma have been giving speakers a workout with their house stylings for more than 20 years, but this will be the duo’s first set at EDC. You’d better be ready for their set because they’ve had a lot of time to prepare, and they’re liable to throw down one of the weekend’s biggest surprise barn-burners.

Yes, you read this correctly. Eric Prydz’ protege Fehrplay has yet to school the crowds of EDC Las Vegas in his immersive prog house, but that is about to change. Get ready with previews of his latest and more on his SoundCloud page.

You can’t have a conversation about EDC’s continually expanding horizons in 2014 without mentioning Kill Frenzy. Lose yourself in his remix of Claude VonStroke’s Dood for a peek into the mind of one of the dirtybird’s filthiest fowls.

One of the knights of the Armada throne makes his first visit to EDC this year. Be sure you’re in the crowd when this trance demigod addresses his EDC subjects for the first time with recent tracks like The Late Anthem and the No Saint Out Of Me LP.

As one of Armada’s newest names, Andrew Rayel is shaping the future of trance with releases like those found on his stunning debut album Find Your Harmony. His debut at EDC this year is surely one of the first in a long line of significant achievements in his career.
